3. What body movements are due to muscles working in opposed groups? Explain

Biology
1 answer:
NikAS [45]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Elbow

Explanation:

Muscle works in pairs and groups e.g biceps flexes the elbow and triceps extend it and it is called antagonistic muscle action.

The working muscle is called the primer mover or agonist. The relaxing muscle by another muscle is called synergists.

When muscles cause a limb to move through the joint range of motion,it could be synergists or antagonists.

Each muscle fiber contains tiny threads called _____, which are made of myosin and actin.
Gwar [14]
Myofibrils are the building blocks or contractile unit of each muscle fiber. The tiniest functional unit of skeletal muscle, the sarcomere, is found in the myofibrils and is made up of protein filaments: actin (thin) and myosin (thick).

Which statements about the fluid mosaic structure of a membrane are correct? Select the three correct statements.
jeka57 [31]

The correct statements are:

1. The framework of a membrane is a bilayer of phospholipids with their hydrophilic heads facing the aqueous environment inside and outside of the cell and their hydrophobic tails clustered in the center.

2. The diverse proteins found in and attached to membranes perform many important functions.

5. Because membranes are fluid, membrane proteins and phospholipids can drift about in the membrane.

enyata [817]

Answer:

At dawn the squid prepares to hide in the sand for the day and it ejects about 95% of the bacteria from the light organ in order to reduce or stop the growth of bacteria population in the squid. This will prevent the bacteria population from reaching a level too high for the squid to support.

Why are raptors a indicator species?
Arturiano [62]
Indicator species may provide useful substitute for large scale surveys to monitor biodiversity. Weconducted surveys in the Afro-alpine habitats of the Bale Mountains National Park (BMNP) with theobjective of identifying indicators for the species richness of the raptor guild. Raptors were countedby scan sampling technique from a suitable vintage point. Three classes of 18 sample units groupedaccording to the variability of the moorland ecosystem in the magnitude of process variables importantfor raptor species richness were used in determining the indicator value of species as a function of their abundance concentration and the percentage of species occurrence per sample group. Thisprocedure determined indicator values for all species in the resident raptor community. Comparisonwith randomly expected values demonstrated that only<span> Aquila verreauxii</span>and<span> A. chrysaetos</span>haveindicator values that were significantly larger than the randomly expected values. The species richnessestimated using the abundances of these two species predicted the observed species richness of thewhole community in a linear regression model that explained 66% of the deviance in the data set.Furthermore, the species richness of the community predicted by process variables had correlation of very high significance with that predicted by the indicator species. We have thus identified twoindicator species to a raptor guild of the BMNP and demonstrated that these two species encapsulatedmost of the information regarding the species richness response of the guild to key process variablesin the Afro-alpine moorland ecosystem. Our findings contribute significantly to current and futureefforts of monitoring the biodiversity of the park providing a cheap and quick means of data generation<span>relevant for making management decisions.                               Hope this helped! :)</span>
